What is Mogroside V and why does the 60% concentration matter?
Mogroside V is the primary sweet compound in monk fruit, responsible for 70–80% of its perceived sweetness. It is a cucurbitane-type triterpenoid glycoside — a natural sweetener 250–500 times sweeter than sucrose by weight, yet non-caloric and non-glycemic.
Why 60% Mogroside V
At the 60% grade, the extract delivers approximately 250× sucrose sweetness by weight — our highest concentration. Key advantages:
- Minimum addition rate: Least powder per unit sweetness — ideal for high-potency pharma and compact tablets
- Cleanest label: Minimal extract quantity in formulations
- Best stability: Highest mogroside content = best heat and pH stability
- White powder: Preferred for pharmaceutical and premium cosmetic aesthetics
